Period photolithographic prints on thin paper from 1938, normal yellowing for their age.

Dimensions of each page: 35 x 26 cm

Herbert List is a German photographer influenced by surrealist artists such as René Magritte, Man Ray, and Giorgio de Chirico. Until 1962, he travels extensively, visiting Greece, Spain, Italy, France, Mexico, and the Caribbean, regularly publishing in magazines such as Heute, Epoca, Look, Harper's Bazaar, Flair, Picture Post, and Life. He is also regarded as a major photographer of homoeroticism.
